Sometimes It Happens

Sometimes a project is completed

and you return to the one you left for it.

Then you know you must first return to the wedding top

and the next day the yarn club sends its first offering.
 What's a girl to do?

The Upside and Down


Who can resist Fairisle arm warmers?


The upside is adorning arms . . .

with long-stashed strands of yummy yarns.

 The upside is the colour blend . . . 

  on hairy legs of my best friend.

But, wait! All's not well.
Yours might be a tangled hell.
 The downside is on the inside

 where all the bits and ends reside. . . 

 and realizing that that's not it. . . 

 you've got a second one to knit.

A Shady Character

 All winter long I wait for a day like today
 when the sun shines in my garden

 creating dappled spots

 and full-on sun spots

and spots of deep shade.

Don't get me wrong, I do love a day like today
but, sometimes I need the shade.

It keeps moving, though,

 and I have to keep moving, too.

 It was sunny here this morning but,

 it looks like the sun is over there now.

 The stone is cool

and so am I.
